How to identify it

This recall involves the Nordic Flame Tabletop Fire Pit. The fire pit comes in a rectangular shape and is stainless steel with a fuel cup and a burner handle. The product UPC is 78557162608 which appears on the packaging of the product .

The hazard

The Nordic Flame Tabletop Fire Pit requires consumers to pour ethanol into the burner and then ignite the pooled ethanol fuel in the same location it was poured.

The recalled products do not meet the labelling requirements for consumer chemical products sold with the intention of being filled with a hazardous chemical product, as required by the Consumer Chemicals and Containers Regulations, 2001, under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act.

Flame jetting occurs when fuel vapours around a poured fuel stream ignite when a user refuels a portable fire product that is still burning, possibly when a flame is not readily visible. It can also occur when the flame is extinguished but the device is still hot. This can result in a burst of flaming fuel being rapidly expelled out of the container and travelling a distance dangerous to the user and bystanders. Flame jetting occurs very quickly, so the user and/or bystanders are unable to react quickly enough to move away from an incoming flame jet. Please visit this page for more information on flame jetting and portable products that use pourable alcohol-based fuels.

The lack of appropriate labelling and hazard information could contribute to a flame jetting incident and/or unintentional exposure to the product and lead to serious illness, injury or death.

As of October 7th 2025, the company has received no reports of incidents or injury in Canada.
